Ice Safety Technician – Operations (IST2)

Date: January 27, 2014 8:30 am to January 28, 2014 5:30 pm

Join instructors Lauren and Dean for two days of practical ice training this January.

After an introduction to the hazards posed by a frozen lake or river and how to mitigate them, you'll get outfitted in a drysuit, PFD, and other specialised gear for ice safety. We'll have you practicing a variety of self rescue techniques, partner-rescue techniques, ice travel techniques, and get you thinking and planning how you can incorporate safer work practices into your job.
